Bruised Stomach, Bump Formation, Painful, Strong Abdominus Rectus. What Might Be Wrong?

I recently ran an ultramarathon and had compression short on during the run. They were tied and the knot was tucked inside. After the marathon I noticed that the knot had been pressing on my stomach and caused a bruise. The bruise is gone now but I have a hard, pea-sized lump on my abdomen now where the knot was. It doesn't reduce and isn't really painful. I have a very strong abdominus rectus and I can't imagine the compression shorts were tight enough to cause a hernia... Can you tell me what this might be?
